It is important to perform speaker configuration prior to using the surround sound decoder.

This allows the unit to sense the available speakers and automatically select decoding modes. It is possible to receive multi-channel surround sound without a center speaker, but for best results with Dolby Pro LogicI I and Dolby Digital decoding, at least 5 speakers (Left, Center, Right, Left Rear and Right Rear) should be used.
